Established in 1857, Denton is considered part of the "Golden Triangle" that also includes Dallas and Fort Worth.

Interstate 35 is the main artery connecting Denton to Dallas and Fort Worth and is populated by every imaginable restaurant and retail chain including The Golden Triangle Mall.
Approximately 103,000 people call Denton home not including a student population of 40,000. The city is well served by LINK public transit system and the Denton Municipal Airport; although, DFW International Airport is just a short trip to the west.
